T all 'it may c oncernb Be' it k own. that I,"S'AMUi :L J. WENT- WQRTH,a. citlz en of the United States, residr "ing at- N'ewport, in: thecounty of Campbell 5 and State of 'Kentucky, have invented certa n -new"andusefu'l Improvements in Gez-ment Heating and Distributing Apparatus,

of which the following is a specification.

The primary object of my invention is toapply eflective means for'cementing to-' gether' tW'Q' 01- more articles such as' shoe :shanksmadeofwood, or, wood and metal" bent to the appropriate shape by means of;asuita'ble cement applied to the surface to;

. be joined. i

There are manyarts which require a very strong cement which mustbeapplied" hot and which will cool quickly in order'to be 'applied'veryrapidlyso that the plan may be economically employed. Such-uses employ'avery'st icky, 'pitchy' substance te1npered with petroleum or othersuitable oil' so as to have the requisite strength: The dev ce hereinshown and descrlbed is adapt-i 2 'ed to employ any of the well knowncements Jot-this character, such as is used in canlabellng machines andshanks to the soles.

The features of the invention are more ful'ly set forth inthedescription; of the ac- Figure 1 is a top plan. view-of the Cementing device; 2 is acenti'al vertical section of Fig. 1'.

embracing the side peripheries of the wheel. This strippler is madeadjustable to and from the .perip ery, so that just the desired amountof cement will be carried forward on the periphery of the Wheel. In theprefer-red. form of making this'adjust nent, the stripper is made ofelastic material and I 7 providethe adjusting bolt and thumb nut 22,

by means of which the stripper is adjusted j ust close enoughito theperlphery 01" the wheel to allow onl'ysa very little ofthe liquid cementto be carried out of the tank, so as to prevent its being dripped in theact of pasting an article. 'Tliis stripper thus serves the purpose ofpreventing .the waste of the cement as well as serving to prevent thedripping and accumulation of the cement upon the top of thetank.

The operator takes the piece to be cemente'd, draws the surface of thesame quickly across the periphery of the wheel 1 between the guards andinstantly applies the cement to the article to which it is to beattached.
